No start after intake and carb swap. Stumped

By torch, he means flashlight. Don't use a torch looking for a gas leak.

Remy,
One thing at a time....& you will get through this:
- If the cam is stock [ or you are not sure ], set initial timing to 12*
- If the cam is bigger than stock, set initial to about 20*.
- With the engine idling, using a torch, look into the pri barrels, look from the brass booster tip down to the blades. If you see fuel dripping, that is a problem.
- Secondaries will NOT open until choke is fully open. So choke adjustment can stop secs from opening.

Report back after doing the above.

No, a torch might set it on fire! Yeah, yeah, I know what we call "flashlights" are what y'all call "torches"...!

Ok went through Bewy's checklist. All good. Will start a new thread for additional tuning.
